I've had doctors make up things as egregious as my height.
I had one doc I had only met remotely who entered a height into my online, shared record that was several inches shorter than I was...back when I was an 11-year-old child. It's been 25 years since I was that short.
I pressed them that they could at least have asked me how tall I am, or even consulted the previous entries by other doctors in their same system.
There wasn't even an attempt at an excuse. It was plain, simple negligence.
That doctor had also been insisting I needed to let him do an exploratory surgery, despite never even having had me come to the office in person, so I noped right out of there and started telling that story to everyone I thought might consider seeing him.
